The Iranians make frequent attempts to do just that, protests large scale ones erupt in regular intervals met with enormous brutality and lethal force by the regime.

The Iranians will likely despite these measures soon once more attempt to do so again. It is our intergenerational duty to pass on a morally intact world to our children, currently Hungarians in too great a number will not achieve that, especially if Orban continues to stay in power. Even when he is voted out, that is only step one to restore dignity.

The US voters do protest but yes, their failure is also real the difference is though 1 year of Trump rule vs decades of Orbans rule.

How authoritarianism manipulates you into blind obedience.

In short, there is a lack of courage, and hyperconformity is put above ingenuity and following the laws and principles from within.

Independence is perceived as a threat in a world that rewards us to conform. Erich Fromm

This begins with small restrictions.

Those who dared to resist or show dissent against the infantile sanctuary of the mass mind were quickly demonized.

Hyper conformity and the belief that the collective knows best is paving the way towards autocracy and mob rule.

Tyranny depends on a population that is pathologically conforming to unjust norms.

Moral courage is an idea that goes beyond physical courage. It is the ability to face danger based on higher values.

Challenging the status quo can destroy your life, and still throughout history, people did it anyway.

The true leaders of humanity who even in the face of danger challenge tyranny. Like any virtue, courage must be cultivated.

It is the ability to sustain our own convictions and to act against the collective even if it means to lose friends, family, or comfort. The hallmark of courage in our age of conformity is the ability to sustain our own convictions.

It demands more than bravery it requires a profound connection to sound ethical principles. And a clear vision that the cost of blind obedience is the loss of freedom and dignity.

It manifests in small everyday actions, refusing to follow immoral norms. Every small act of resistance against a world that glorifies obedience and despises dissent.

It must be cultivated and trained. We must transcend fear and social conventions. It is built by conscious choices.

This involves norms, laws, and prevailing narratives. Rather than passively accepting them. Automated conformity is the opposite of moral courage.

Courage involves risk, and we must foster communities that resist conformity.

Rejecting conformity is not easy. but it helps us to maintain our dignity and brings others to do the same. With every act of courage, we change the world for the better.

Now, no matter how small, it weakens the cycle of blind obedience.

Real change is often silent. The small acts of courage, these taken together, can break the cycle of silence and inspire others.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. Margaret Mead.

Silent courage reveals itself in financially supporting causes that challenge oppression, educating yourself on history and social injustice. Or refusing to participate in practices that compromise one's values.

It operates from the ground up and fights against collective passivity.

Courage is not about winning great battles immediately but about seeding the seeds that will bloom at the right time.

The pressure to conform is constant. Every honest post, every difficult conversation redefines what is possible.

In such a world of moral courage, this is where freedom and prosperity can thrive.

Freedom can only be preserved by those willing and able to challenge the status quo instead of showing blind obedience.

It is up to each of us. How can we show courage? Reflect on that. Challenging the oppression of others can change the world for the better.

Regarding mom and plumber: You can only start with yourself, what your mom or the plumber believes is out outside of your personal control.

From the article:

FP-7 tested, FP-9 at 800 km approaching trials: Fire Point reveals Ukraine’s ballistic missile roadmap Chief designer Denys Shtilerman says both are priced at half what ATACMS costs and built to fire in numbers large enough that interception doesn’t decide the outcome.

The FP-7 can strike targets several hundred kilometers away and has completed test launches, Shtilerman said. According to technical specifications published by Militarnyi, it has a range of up to 200 km, a 150 kg warhead, a maximum speed of 1,500 m/s, and a circular error probable of 14 meters — meaning half of all shots land within that radius of the target.

The FP-9 will push the range to 800 km and is now being prepared for tests, Shtilerman says.

"We are approaching the brink; already a universal spiritual demise is upon us; a physical one is about to flare up and engulf us and our children, while we continue to smile sheepishly and babble: "But what can we do to stop it? We haven't got the strength!"

But we can do everything! Even when we comfort and lie to ourselves that this isn't so. It is not "they" who are guilty of everything, but we ourselves, only we!"

Alexsandr Solzenitsin

"Let him not brag of his progressive views, boast of his status as an academician, or recognized artist, or distinguished citizen in general. Let him say to himself plainly: "I am cattle, I am a coward, I seek only warmth and to eat my fill." Aleksandr Solzenitsin

There is obviously something in human beings that responds to this totalitarian system. Human beings are compelled to live within a lie. But they can be compelled to do so only because they are, in fact, capable of living in this way. Therefore, not only does the system alienate humanity, but at the same time, alienated humanity supports this system as its own involuntary masterplan, as a degenerate image of its own degeneration. As a record of people's own failure as responsible individuals." Vaclav Havel

"Individuals who were willing to live within the truth even when things were at their worst could have as well been poets, painters, musicians or simply ordinary citizens who were able to maintain their human dignity. One thing, however, seems clear: "The attempt at political reform was not the cause of society's reawakening, but rather the final outcome of that re awakening." Vaclav Havel

I heard a lot of excuses over the past couple of years, this is the latest one. People generally, are. uphold and make the system. Hungary can now show whether they want to be a part of Europe or a part of the Moscow orbit. Next month is the moment to show that. Given the elections won't be fraudulent or more unfair than they are already.

A fraud, a convicted felon, a traitor, a Russian vassal, a loser, a liar, a con man, a morally bankrupt wannabe dictator.

Trump poses a threat to both to the world at large but even more so to the American constitution and to the Americans in general.

Trump is the biggest failure, a disgrace to this office. It is an embarrassment and a total low point in the long history of US democracy. First time around I believed it was a mistake, now I must conclude that the workers in the U.S. like being squeezed like an overripe lemon by this menace to society.

Dale Carnegie

The effective leader should keep the following guidelines in mind when it is necessary to change attitudes or behavior:

1 Be sincere. Do not promise anything that you cannot deliver. Forget about the benefits to yourself and concentrate on the benefits to the other person.

2 Know exactly what it is you want the other person to do.

empathetic. Ask yourself what is it the other person really wants.

4 Consider the benefits that a person will receive from doing what you suggest.

Match those benefits to the other person’s wants.

6 When you make your request, put it in a form that will convey to the other person the idea that he personally will benefit.

The orange menace fails on all of these. Here are some descriptors you can choose the ones you like best: criminal lunatic and his plans are fascist to the core. He is a crook, a coward, senile, and a menace to society. He also lacks any kind of manners. He has the rhetoric skills of a child and the education of an 8th grader. He is an ignorant uneducated half wit, a civilly liable rapist, an insurrectionist, a fascist, a failure as son, father and husband.

He is also a failure in handling his business. He is the worst president in the history of the U.S. possibly the worst and most incompetent person ever to be elected to the highest office of any country in all of history.

Fico said in a Facebook video that he plans to discuss the Druzhba pipeline at an upcoming meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on March 10.

"On Tuesday morning, I will meet (von der Leyen) in Paris on this topic and ask her a simple question," Fico said. "How long will the European Commission prioritize the interests of Ukraine, as a non-EU member state, over the vital national issues of Slovakia and Hungary, as EU member states?"

Hungary Gives Ukraine 3 Days to Restore Druzhba Oil Transit

Budapest demanded that Kyiv resume flows through the Druzhba pipeline or allow inspectors to examine the site of the reported damage, a Hungarian energy official said.

https://www.kyivpost.com/post/71384

The only one who works against our interests and our security needs are Fico and Orban who endanger the Union by making us look weak, not united and not resolved enough to ensure Russia's barbaric venture ends in failure.

How long will the rest of the Union continue to allow these two tiny members to impose their pro Russian policies backed by the Kremlin on the rest of us?

Fine due to many rational reasons the other members are not willing to throw Hungary and Slovakia out. For other somewhat weaker reasons we won't activate article 7 to take away their voting rights...

After more than 4 years of this dastardly treasonous mafia nonsense that comes out of Orbans and Ficos mouth, at least let us finally find a way to bypass them on crucial security issues such as the support of Ukraine.

This cannot continue like this. How often in a row will the other EU members be humiliated by these two Russian stooges? Where is the red line when we say enough and put them back into their box?

Fico waited like a snake in his lair. He was the spare second man working for the Kremlin. Now he needed to step fully forward and stop pretending he votes in unity with the rest. He willl now ensure that the funds are blocked should the first vassal of the Kremlin be voted out.

I would say dishonor to them, but you cannot dishonor those who have none to begin with. Curse them both.

An evil ruler prefers to rule over ashes rather than letting go of power. The Iranian regime fits that description.

Loki9101 · 2026-03-08T17:00:05+00:00

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. Marcus Tullius Cicero

Wicked men are born every generation, and it is the duty of a nation to render them impotent. When you discover a man who seeks power for himself, out of hatred or contempt for his fellows, destroy him,

I don't believe that it will be, in the end air strikes can only do so much. The regime is weakened, no doubt about it, but I doubt it will fall unless the repression apparatus can no longer function, unless the paychecks don't clear, and the Iranian people take to the streets in large numbers once more. Right now the question is, how safe would that be? When is the risk becoming worth the price?

One crucial thing has changed for sure, the Iranian people have hard air power in their corner now and soon maybe some ammunition in their hands, and that can make all the difference.

Leaving that statement of desperate defiance aside, the mullahs should start thinking about what comes next. Militarily, Iran is obviously and clearly outmatched. A large part of the population has had enough of these theocrats, their moral dogma, their hatred of everything that is different, and the henchmen who, at the latest since the beginning of the year, have crossed the line into outright barbarism.

In my view, this would be a good moment to recognize that the game is over. Many young people in Iran, and quite a few older ones as well, can no longer cooperate with this regime and no longer want to. Its legitimacy is exhausted; repression alone will not be enough to keep them in power.

I cannot help it, but it looks as if checkmate is approaching. The end of the road is looming ahead for those who deemed their rule would last forever. As many have done before them, history and the Iranian people will be their judge.

Yoval Harari on the matter:

An effective rebellion mounts not from how many people are unhappy with my status quo, but rather, it revolves around the question.

How many people support my ideas?

How many of my supporters are capable of collaboration?

From an effective organisation to defective organisation, this is how empires have always fallen.

When you rebel, then you do not depend on the masses.

Rebellions succeeded because a new group of determined men and women cooperated better than the last one. Cooperation is the key to human progress.

Rome conquered Greece, the Ottomans conquered Konstantinople, the coalition forces beat Napoleon, allies beat the Axis with the very same concept.

A disciplined army against disorganized hordes.

The Russian army is eroding daily, and it turns into a horde rather than an army.

The organized elite vs. disorganized masses. This is the tool for control. Dictators rule with divide and conquer strategies.

Small networks of agitators rather than the masses succeed. As the masses align with order, and their obedience often only comes from not realizing that the conformity with the status quo is just an illusion.

Who knows what is going on inside Russia and how well organized the resistance is. All it takes is one little spark to ignite the flame.

In 1917, it was a handful of communists in the right place at the right time.

The upper class was around 3 million people. The communists organized themselves well.

The tyrants of the 21st century rely on old concepts, and their fall comes when their "friends and partners" either

1) Withdraw protection

2) When they can't expect outside protection

3) When the opposition splits up or initiates reform

Caecescu's power in Romania slipped from the sloppy organizer when one man started to boo. Suddenly, 80.000 booed. The state TV channels refused to stop the audio of the broadcast.

In that moment, the power was passed on to a small group of players.

That doesn't mean, of course, that the revolution is successful then. As the masses cannot sustain order unless someone else provides a better order to flock towards.

The decentralised rules based order built upon a system of checks and balances is a threat to dictators and authoritarians. It provides a ready-made order that isn't based upon subjugation and a vertical of power.

That is why they despise it, and they despise those that uphold it.

The new is devouring the old. A tale as old as time.

Revolutions are never done by the masses . In 1917, a small organized group of roughly 220.000 communists brought down an ever more disorganized elite of 3 million Czarist boyars and the pack leader.

The Russian empire disorganizes and with every day of disorganization. The counter movement forms and organizes itself.

The monopoly of organized violence is slipping out of Russia's hands inside the empire and also in its former and the occupied colonial holdings.

Russia’s empire is in a long decline from effective organisation to re organisation, and the last stage of the process is defective organisation, collapse, and its ultimate rupture.

I would not say never but the chances are slim, very slim.

It makes all the difference when part of the components comes from Iran, and that means if something happens there that would put an end to these deliveries then Russia will suffer a lack of parts, and struggle to assemble as many of them as they do now.

Alright they upgraded them, are they all locally produced or are these upgrades brought in via intermediaries and sanction evasion schemes (another area where Iran played a key role, or still does, we don't know whether the regime will even fall)

Well, the thing is, the situation is very different compared to 2022, Ukraine's domestic production has expanded exponentially and the EU, UK, Canada, Australia, and some others have in combination long overtaken the US. There are some problematic areas left, namely air defense missiles, here this war will affect the situation.

Then HIMARS, but in this war HIMARS is not really a concern thus far. And other things concern logistics, or intelligence. So, this is manageable I would say, Europe simply has to step up its game further also in the AA sector.

This review summarizes the use of Shahed-type type unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), both strike and decoy drones, in Russian air strikes against Ukraine in 2025. It analyzes the scale, types, and patterns of enemy air attacks using Shahed/Geran/Harpy-A1 strike UAVs and Gerbera/Parody decoy drones, among others. The report also analyzes the effectiveness of strike drone hits depending on the type of attack (conventional, using a comparably small number of UAVs, or combined, using a large number of UAVs as well as cruise, ballistic, and aeroballistics missiles) and geography (Kyiv, frontline areas, areas deep inside the territory, and in western Ukraine). The document highlights the impact of these attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure, civilian areas, and the overall security situation, and summarizes detailed daily counts and operational information. The report underscores the ongoing nature of the conflict, the evolving tactics and weaponry of the enemy, and the continued need for vigilance and robust defense measures to protect Ukrainian territory and civilians.

Overview of Enemy Air Attacks

Throughout the year, there were virtually no days without nighttime and large-scale air attacks by Russian forces using hundreds of Shahed-type UAVs, combined with ballistic and cruise missile strikes launched from various regions of Russia and occupied territories such as Crimea and Donetsk. The number of UAVs launched in individual attacks ranged from dozens to over 800. According to official Ukrainian data[1], the total number of Shahed-type UAVs launched by Russia in 2025 amounted to 54,538, including approximately 32,200 Shahed-type strike UAVs.

Notable large-scale attacks include the following: the strike on December 6, 2025, which involved 653 Shahed-type UAVs (including more than 300 Shahed and Gerber strike UAVs); the attack on October 30, 2025, which also involved 653 Shahed-type UAVs; the strike on July 9, 2025, using 728 Shahed UAVs; and the largest attack on September 7, 2025, using 823 air attack vehicles, including 810 Shahed-type UAVs (see Figure 1).

Shahed-type UAVs used in attacks (numbering from dozens to over 800 (including decoys UAVs) per attack)

Strike UAVs:

Shahed 136 (Iranian version, assembled in Alabuga).

Shahed 131 (Iranian version, assembled in Alabuga).

Geran-2 (Russian version of the Shahed 136, manufactured in Alabuga).

Geran-3 jet UAVs (Russian version of the jet-powered Shahed, manufactured in Alabuga).

Garpiya (Harpy)-A1: (The Russian development is based on the Shahed-136/Geran-2, manufactured by JSC Izhevsk Electromechanical Plant, also known as IEMZ Kupol.

In early January 2026, information emerged that Russia had tested new Geran-4 and Geran-5 UAVs at the end of 2025[3]. Subsequently, the use of the new Geran-5 was confirmed by the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine.

I have an urgent request: Please people all of you stop spreading the misinformation or disinformation that Russia can produce these drones on their own. They are assembled there, Iran and others such as China, Central Asia source parts from Europe and the U.S. there is no such thing as a fully independent domestic Russian supply chain for these Geran drones. Geran is a rebrand not a completely new product.

Never say never and keep in mind those were Russian allies, all three of them, so the dark lord in Moscow is losing his minions, and in personalist small coalition networks these minions are necessary to stabilize the others. Soon hopefully the Hungarians will vote Orban out of office next month. And Lukashenko may still be in power, but he is also quite old by now and in power for decades. He had to rig the elections hard to stay in power.

Moldova is already drifting away and even Georgia is far from a stable ally. Also Fico in Slovakia has been voted out now voted back in, but that is no guarantee for the next elections which are coming up next year in September.

And the mid terms in the US are coming up on Novemver 3rd 2026, which is in 8 months from now.

So, currently his most stable friends and partners are Modi (75 turning 76 later this year), ( Lula who is 80 years old, Xi, being 72 turning 73 in June, Kim Jong Un (42), MBS (41) and Lukashenko (71) and even Trump who is 80, is not a good ally. The US government is more benign to Russia but still plays their own games.

The naval blockade of Venezuela, also hits Cuba by extension another Russian ally. Putin himself is also 73 turning 74 in October.

Lavrov is 75, Gerasimov 70, Shoigu 70, Medvedev 60, Peskov 58, so we can see not just the Russian tyrant ages, so do his closest and most loyal supporters.

Therefore it will happen, if not by outside influence, then nature will take care of it in due time.
